The best restaurants serving Other cuisines food in Elvet County Durham North East

I treated my friend for her birthday to tea here. Absolutely amazing, delicious home made cakes, scones and sandwiches. The atmosphere is really warm and welcoming and well worth a return visit.

Following our mid-afternoon arrival and check-in at Durham’s Hotel Indigo, my wife and I had some time to kill before our room was ready so, feeling peckish, we decided to take advantage of what was on offer in the conveniently located Neighbourhood Coffee House and we were not disappointed. Notwithstanding the delicious and satisfying homemade pie of the day and excellent coffee on offer, the service we received from Harper, the young employee on counter duty at the time, was exemplary in every respect. Her welcoming manner and friendly efficiency put our three day break on the best of footings and she deserves every plaudit that doubtless comes her way.

You walk in passed a few outside tables up the internal stairs to a packed room that has a buzz about it. If you're into gardening there is a beautiful display of house plants in various containers. It was pa ked and we waited ten minutes for a table, but the turnover is quick and staff are efficient. We only had coffee and cake but will decorate go back for lunch having seen everyone else eating.

Really good waffle, crusty outside and soft and fluffy inside. Served with a big scoop of creamy icecream. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Greeted instantly at the door, nipped in for a nosey at the cake counter decided on 3 things for £15 which is on a more expensive scale but city prices for quality cakes and treats woman on the counter stated the offer 5 for £20 absolutely gorgeous also on too good to go so bargains available.

Absolutely terrific breakfast, a family of four dined well here. The negatives are that you can’t book, we arrived at 09:15 (Sunday) and it was almost full. Also if you are sat near the door on a cold autumn or winters day, get used to either getting up and shutting the door or shouting ‘can you shut the door please’ at customers entering or leaving. Genuinely incredible that so many people drift through a door without checking whether it is shutting. We were freezing! Please invest in some door closers! I’m not picking though, the food and service are superb. We had a pancake stack (delicious), avo poached eggs and chilli (ace), two poached eggs on toast (demolished) and a toasted tea cake for the tiny fella. All were served with a smile. All were very very nice. So nice I forgot to take a photo!

Although the English breakfast was average, we loved the service and atmosphere, and we didn't have to wait a lot to get in.

We had a bottomless brunch and Nikita was our waitress. She was 10/10, a lovely server, constantly checking in on us. Would highly recommend!

neither drinks were hot. Luke warm

Sat outside due to limited space inside. Food very delicious had soup and toasted sandwich, kids fish meal good value. Busy friendly atmosphere. Dog friendly, clean washroom

Very tasty food and good quality of coffee come with reasonable price

Lovely cocktail bar with plenty of drinks to choose from. The staff were very friendly and the guy singing live was very good.

As said below, there's an incredibly rude male barista (no hair) - who really needs to sort himself out. Friendly customer service in exchange for money seems to be too much of an ask. Go elsewhere.

Great spot for a cheeky drink really yummy fries. Great atmosphere and minnie and hannah deserve a pay rise!! Iconic bar tenders

We visited this morning for coffee, cake and ice cream with the family. Gorgeous place, excellent food and very friendly staff who made us feel very welcome. Lots of measures in place re Covid - felt very clean and safe.
